as great as all this sounds, i'd honestly rather starve than give tesco a single penny of my money so i'll have to live without trying any of these new items. simple as that, i can't go back on my principles and i DESPISE tesco!

I have two big Tesco Extras near me and only one had it in stock. Customer service (using that term lightly as my experience was not dissimilar to Amy's) at the one lacking said it could be in last night's delivery so to check again today.

No luck :( Instead I made "hummus" with pretty much 1/2 cup of nooch and am pretending it's the cheese spread

You could go to Whole Foods & buy the Sheese cheese spread. The packaging & flavours are the same so I'm pretty sure they're the same stuff.

They aren't quite the same as the Tesco one uses coconut oil not veg oil but they'll be pretty similar.

I haven't ever tried the plain one (either version) but I tried the cheddar one years ago and it was pretty much the most horrid thingI've ever put in my mouth. It's one of only 3 specifically vegan products I've actually put in the bin rather than eat up somehow.

I'm not the hugest fan of the plain Sheese spread or the cheddar but I really like the garlic & herb.

They're not in the branches I popped my head into today for a random looksee (I've not shopped in any supermarkets for quite a while and refuse to shop in the wee Express store that opened across the road from my flat a few months ago as the local indep stores have the same stuff and I don't want to see them go out of business), but we don't have Tesco stores much bigger than your average newsagent in Zone 1. I would imagine the huge Silverburn one might stock such things what with it being the biggest branch in the country, but I'm not willing to pay the extra bus fares out there to find out unless I have 100% confirmation! I'm waiting on a call-back just now from customer services to find out.

The dessert shakes are good, but the packaging sucks balls. They're super fiddly. And shockingly, I like the vanilla more than the chocolate. The chocolate is a bit too much like Alpro chocolate milk, which I find has way too much cocoa powder.

The chocolate coconut milk is pretty good - thicker than most of the chocolate milks but not as cocoa powdery.

The cheddar cheese worked well in tacos. I'll have to do something with the other cheese next. I bought it but have no idea what to do with it. Maybe a toastie.

Yes to those dessert shakes. I'm not going to apologise for this sentence, but it doesn't matter how hard you suck, you still feel you haven't quite got it all. I haven't got my cheese at hand. Is the cheddar one the white one and the orange one something else?

Exactly. I just had one, and I threw out the package feeling like I'd only had half of it. Maybe the packaging is heavier than it looks, but I also think it's because I just didn't get it all.

The white one is "mild" (melty, I think - it has pizza on the front) and the cheddar is orange (with nachos on the front). TBH I'm not sure it's actually called cheddar (since the other is just called mild), but that's the impression I got from the colour and flavour.

I had the soy milk on my cereal this morning. It just tasted like soy milk. I didn't think it tasted any different than Alpro fresh.
